Alan hurt himself. New microphones. Tumblr Interludes. General gushing about how good Veronica Mars was. General gushing about Darran Norris and his many talents. How much more successful the Kane Software is than YouTube. Codecs and super fast uploads. TS Eliot references and shilling for this Fake ads. Hotel room towels placement. Alan dies.
